Vfv Ub Scenarios

This package collects the scenarios shipped with V for Victory: D-Day Utah Beach, the 1991 hex-and-counter wargame by Atomic Games published by Three-Sixty Pacific. The Mac edition was reviewed in 1992 in Dragon issue 180 and was widely regarded at the time as the best operational wargame on the platform.

Setting and command

The game models the American landings on Utah Beach and the subsequent fighting across the Cotentin Peninsula in June 1944. The player commands either US or German forces at division and regimental scale, issuing turn-based orders for movement, combat, and supply across a hex map of Normandy.

The six scenarios

The bundle includes six scenarios. The opening tutorial puts the 9th Infantry Division to work mopping up German pockets behind American lines. Later scenarios task the 101st Airborne with seizing Carentan in three days, stage the four-division assault on Cherbourg, attempt to isolate the port entirely, and culminate in a full grand-campaign that runs many hours.

Series context

Utah Beach was the first title in Atomic Games' V for Victory line, followed by Velikiye Luki, Market Garden, and Gold-Juno-Sword. Its design legacy carried directly into the Avalon Hill World at War series later in the decade.
